Longing for another child

Hey all,
I have 3 children all primary school age, yet can’t shake the feeling of wanting 1 more. I try so hard to not feel this way. Making my self busy, exercising, lunches, working. I just cannot shake it. I am turning 39 this year and feel I have left it to late. I just feel something is missing. Has anyone else felt this way and gotten past it?

You'll move on :) I have 2 and can't have anymore due to medical reasons. I always wanted 4. As they get older I'm too busy with all their different activities to even think about having more kids lol

Time will ease the feelings I always wanted four, I have two and I’m so so thankful for them.
I had to flee their father 10 years ago due to domestic violence and both children have been left with trauma.
I will never have more children due to the amount of I have on my plate already.

Yes do it now if you feel that strongly about it. I wish I did at 38-39 I really wanted 4. While I am happy with 3 and don’t have that strong feeling you don’t get this time again so if it’s what you really want don’t leave it any later than now.
